+This directory contains patches that need to be applied to the MySQL
+source tree in order to build the dynamic plugin on Windows --
+HA_INNODB.DLL. Please note the followings when adding the patches:
+
+* The patch must be applied from the mysql top-level source directory.
+ patch -p0 < win-plugin.diff
+* The patch filenames end in ".diff".
+* All patches here are expected to apply cleanly to the latest MySQL 5.1
+ tree when storage/innobase is replaced with this InnoDB branch.
+
+When applying the patch, the following files will be modified:
+
+ * CMakeLists.txt
+ * sql/CMakeLists.txt
+ * win/configure.js
+
+Also, two new files will be added:
+
+ * sql/mysqld.def
+ * sql/mysqld_x64.def
+
+You can get "patch" utility for Windows from http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/
